Because of its position in the lunar orbit, Tuesday night's full moon was at its lowest point on the horizon. This is known as a "lunar standstill" and only happens every couple of decades; this particular Strawberry Moon was extra special! The moon was at its peak between midnight and 1 a.m.

June's full 'Strawberry Moon' lit up the night sky last night, treating skywatchers to a rare once-in-a-18-year display as it rode low across the southern horizon.

This month's full moon will appear especially low in the sky thanks to a major lunar standstill. Here are the peak view times.
